Either way you decide to prepare Kugel it will sure to be a crowd pleaser and a recipe you will keep coming back to when seeking something easy and wholesome. 

Our culinary and educational specialist, Miss Jenn, has curated two delicious recipes suitable for Passover or Easter featuring Kugel! Her first recipe is for traditional potato kugel where she uses our Alstede Fresh potatoes along with our farm fresh eggs, onions and chives to bring a little Spring into the dish. Not only can this dish be served as a comforting main dish, it can also be used as a tasty dessert with minor tweaking, see her recommendations in her recipe. Eliminate the chives and add vanilla, cinnamon, honey and chopped apples or raisins to the dish to make it more of a dessert. Link to the recipe here
